Project Title: AT-Powered Traffic Management System Using IoT and Machine Learning A Project Report submitied in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of BACHELOR OF TECHNOLOGY Computer Science and Engineering Submitted by John Doe (Roll No: CSE2023123) Under the supervision of Mr. Ramavath Ganesh Assistant Professor SLM IILM University, Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh (November 2025)Abstract This project presents a smart traffic management system using Internet of Things (IoT) devices and Machine Learning algorithms. The system aims to optimize traffic flow by collecting real-time data from sensors and cameras installed at various intersections. Using predictive models, the system dynamically adjusts traffic signals to minimize con gestion and waiting time. The integration of loT and ML improves efficiency, reduces human intervention, and enhances safety on roads. The proposed system can be further expanded with AL-based image processing for emergency vehicle detection and adaptive traffic control.
